Morning came quicker than expected as Ms. Davis set the table for breakfast. Molly was already walking down the stairs when Andy finally woke. He stretched and sat up, recognizing his old bed and the surroundings he had known for nearly ten years. Leaving for college had changed his whole life. He smiled as he spotted the old western wagon toy chest.
"Woody still saves the day without that old thing," he thought aloud.
He turned toward the hall at a familiar shout. "Andy! Time for breakfast!"
With a broad grin, the teen jumped up and rushed downstairs. After nearly avoiding an accident on the banister at the last few steps, Andy slowed down and snuck up behind Ms. Davis only for her to turn around and jump.
"Andy!" she gasped in surprise And chuckled.
"Morning Mom," Andy greeted happily. "Hope ya didn't miss that."
Molly raised a brow at her brother as she kept eating. The thirteen year old rolled her eyes and continued eating her pancakes. Andy grabbed a plate of pancakes and sat down, quickly pouring syrup and nearly drowning his breakfast before his mother could notice.
"Other than your plans for this morning," Ms. Davis started, "will you be visiting the girls again?"
Andy nodded vigorously as he swallowed his eighth bite. "We're going to watch more of the Buzz Lightyear of Star Command series later today before they fall asleep."
Molly rolled her eyes again. "Don't you ever get tired of that stuff?"
"I grew up with it," Andy reminded the younger teen, pointing his fork at her. "Just like you grew up watching the Barbie movie collection."
"Touché," Molly responded with a defeated huff.
Ms. Davis smirked at her two teens and ate her breakfast with them as Andy explained his morning to her and Molly. He was heading out with a couple of old friends to catch a movie and hang out before he went to see the girls. And since he only had a few days, he wanted to spend a lot time with everybody.
Only an hour after the movie with his old friends, Andy was driving back to Bonnie's house for some more hang out time. Since the night before, he couldn't seem to get that doll out of his head.
"Sully. Where have I heard that name before?"
He kept asking himself lever and over, and over for hours. He missed a third of the movie just thinking about it! But he also knew Mary couldn't just come up with creatures like Mike, Sully, and Celia out of nowhere. There had to be a reason.
Pulling up to the house, Andy parked the car and stepped out, nearly getting tackled to the ground at the gate by two little girls. They giggled gleefully as Andy shook his head of the daze he had encountered.
"I need to learn to see you two coming," he joked.
Mary and Bonnie giggled again. Their giggles became squeals quickly when Andy picked them up and spun them around.
Woody, Buzz, and the others all snuck a glance at the trio playing before becoming ordinary toys again. Sully, however, watched a little longer as the three fell to the ground in a fit of hysterical laughter. He loved watching Mary have fun just as Woody loved seeing Andy and Bonnie enjoy playtime as kids, for the most part. He just didn't understand it all that much yet. He went back into toy mode when they sat up.
"What are yew doing today?" Bonnie asked excitedly.
"More Buzz Lightyear I hope!" Mary added, bouncing excitedly her knees.
Andy chuckled. "Of course! So let's bring the toys in watch all watch together!"
The girls looked at each other and ran toward the tree, gathering all of the toys and running into the house for Moore cartoons. Andy couldn't blame them for being excited. He was just glad to pass on a great part of his childhood to the next generation.
Aw, never go back for the cat!
You gotta go back for the cat. It's, like a rule.
Andy and the girls laughed at Booster and XR through most of that day. Bonnie and Mary wouldn't go to bed until almost ten at night. By that time, Andy had to sleep over. Bonnie and Mary slept in Bonnie's room while Andy slept in the spare room. The teen easily fell asleep. That is, until he heard a noise from the girls' room.
He blinked his eyes open drowsily and walked down the hall to Bonnie's room. Before he opened the door, he heard slow whispers coming from inside. Three different voices to be exact. He recognized Mary and Bonnie, but the third was a deep, almost monotone voice. Andy thought he was hearing things at first.
"Can we come with you?" he heard Mary ask.
"Not tonight Boo," the unknown voice answered sadly. "I have to worry about Roz, remember?"
"Alright," Mary responded, almost brokenhearted. "Tomorrow?" Her tone was too hopeful for Andy to understand why.
"If I can get Mike to help out, yes."
Andy could swear he heard a smile in that tone, but his mind blanked when he heard the name Mike. All he could think of was the little toy Mary had. The small, green, one-eyed figure she played with. His brain raced to think of where he had seen the blue and purple creature before. When he couldn't take it any longer, Andy opened the door so fast no one could react. The scene he saw shocked him to no end.
Yeah, I know. Pretty crazy huh? Well, I thought you guys could use a cliff hangar for now. But the hint was too obvious if you ask me. But happy summer to you guys! I'll update when I can.
Anywho's! Read & review please. I need actual criticism on some of these things. It'll really help me in the long run.
